NAME

6       Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse - DNS recursive resolver
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse;
10
11           my $resolver = new Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse();
12           $resolver->debug(1);
13
14           $resolver->hints('198.41.0.4');     # A.ROOT-SERVER.NET.
15
16           my $packet = $resolver->send( 'www.rob.com.au.', 'A' );
17

DESCRIPTION

19       This module is a subclass of Net::DNS::Resolver.
20

METHODS

22       This module inherits almost all the methods from Net::DNS::Resolver.
23       Additional module-specific methods are described below.
24
25   hints
26       This method specifies a list of the IP addresses of nameservers to be
27       used to discover the addresses of the root nameservers.
28
29           $resolver->hints(@ip);
30
31       If no hints are passed, the priming query is directed to nameservers
32       drawn from a built-in list of IP addresses.
33
34   query, search, send
35       The query(), search() and send() methods produce the same result as
36       their counterparts in Net::DNS::Resolver.
37
38           $packet = $resolver->send( 'www.example.com.', 'A' );
39
40       Server-side recursion is suppressed by clearing the recurse flag in
41       query packets and recursive name resolution is performed explicitly.
42
43       The query() and search() methods are inherited from Net::DNS::Resolver
44       and invoke send() indirectly.
45
46   callback
47       This method specifies a code reference to a subroutine, which is then
48       invoked at each stage of the recursive lookup.
49
50       For example to emulate dig's "+trace" function:
51
52           my $coderef = sub {
53               my $packet = shift;
54
55               printf ";; Received %d bytes from %s\n\n",
56                       $packet->answersize, $packet->answerfrom;
57           };
58
59           $resolver->callback($coderef);
60
61       The callback subroutine is not called for queries for missing glue
62       records.
